 * The CPU benchmark never completes on my localhost. It’s an iMac 2.5 GHz core 
   i5. It’s running under Apache 2.2.22, PHP 5.3.17 and WordPress 3.5
 * Commenting out most of bench_cpu makes it work.
 * It has worked on all the shared hosts I’ve tried so far.

 * You need the bcmath library… I’m not sure if you need to recompile on your Mac
   or how to fix, but on CentOS you could do this:
    - sudo yum -y install php-bcmath
 * Or if you use IUS repos, you might need to do either of these:
    - sudo yum -y install php53u-bcmath
    - or sudo yum -y install php54-bcmath
 * Then restart Apache
